‘He accepted Chelsea as his next club’ – Romano confirms as player close to Chelsea move
Now that another Chelsea trade has been finalized, everyone is eagerly anticipating word that a player will be joining the team.
We are all well aware that a move is not final until a club makes an official announcement of it, thus until that time, nobody will be able to unwind completely.
However, it is encouraging to learn that Kalidou Koulibaly has accepted to join Chelsea from Napoli this transfer window, according to one of the greatest transfer news sources, Fabrizio Romano, with a deal now anticipated to be finalized very soon.
In fact, Romano claims that sources at Chelsea have informed him that the transfer is now “only a matter of time,” which is pretty much the closest thing to saying “here we go” when the deal is completed.
Any notion of Barcelona trying to enter the race—which is what they frequently do right now-haunts Chelsea supporters, but this one is beginning to seem very secure.
Kalidou Koulibaly has accepted Chelsea as next club after new meeting with his agent yesterday in Milano. Personal terms agreed for €10m net salary per year. He's waiting for the clubs to complete the agreement. 🔵 #CFC
